Is this iPhone 5? Pictures of alleged iPhone with larger screen leak out of China

Are these pictures of the next-gen iPhone 5? Images have surfaced on Chinese website MIC Gadget that show what appears to be a white iPhone with a larger screen. The side-by-side image above shows a traditional iPhone 4 display on the left, and on the right is a mystery iPhone display piece with a larger screen area, which could be iPhone 5 (or a fake, of course).

MICGadget says the following about the images, but doesn’t specify where they came from:

Man, we don’t know if this is real, but at least we can see that it has a larger display and edge-to-edge glass. Maybe it’s a mockup, but we are sure that it’s not an iPhone 4.

Remember, things like this are easy to photoshop and fake, so don’t be too convinced yet. Also, the Chinese grey market is full of masterful counterfeits, so it could be a fake iPhone running a themed version of Android, or anything else for that matter. Chances are if someone truly has their hands on an iPhone 5 (or iPhone 4S or whatever it’s going to be called) we’ll see videos surface of the device in action, similar to what we saw with the white iPhone running Expose on an unreleased device and iOS version.
